Friday I went for my monthly check up with Dr. L. Everything looks good. She said I am measuring perfectly (whatever that means exactly). I gained 5 lbs, which she was glad to hear, I am up 13 lbs total. Now I have to start seeing the other doctors in her practice, so that I meet them all (any one of them can deliver the baby). So next month I am going to the Mineola office to see Dr. L (a guy - my first male ob/gyn, although not that it matters because all they do is listen to the heartbeat, weigh you, check your blood pressure & urine). At my next appt I have to have my Rhogam shot which I pick up at the pharmacy. In two weeks I have to go to the lab for my 1 hour Gastrointestinal Diabetes test, oh fun.
I am feeling great. Having some trouble sleeping at night (tossing & turning and waking up to pee multiple times) so I am a bit tired during the day. But no complaints really. I am 25 weeks along right now. We are really excited and can't believe we only have 3 months to go, time to start getting some stuff done around here and getting prepared. The baby is constantly moving and every time I am amazed by the kicks, movements & flutterings. I love the feeling.
We had a very busy weekend, but finally made some progress on the baby end. We went to Behr's and looked at furniture for the nursery. I am happy to say that Chris and I were able to agree on the type of crib we like and narrowed it down to 3 sets. The only question is the stain, I want a dark cherry and Chris likes more the walnut/chestnut colors.. The set we are leaning towards is Munire Majestic. They show it in the color chestnut color, which Chris prefers http://www.munirefurniture.com/majestic_01.htm. I can't find the other two sets online, they are by Creations. Both manufacturers got very high ratings in Baby Bargains. We looked at some sets at BRU, but the quality just wasn't the same and the price difference wasn't really that much. Not to mention that they received D ratings from Baby Bargains and Consumer Reports.
